The story follows a young woman preparing for an important day, her first audition, with the help of her friend Sofia. Sofia curls her hair and applies her makeup while they listen to music and sing along. The protagonist briefly drifts off while Sofia works on her lashes. When everything is nearly ready, Sofia checks the time and panics, realizing it’s already 8 AM. She dashes out of the room to find better clothes while the protagonist scrolls through Instagram. She notices a story by Madison Bailey, admires her beauty, and experiences a moment of "bisexual panic," questioning her sexuality as she realizes she might be attracted to women. She nervously sends Madison a message expressing her dream of joining Outer Banks but knows it’s unlikely to receive a reply.
